System keeps resetting

[gamerxx13]

here are my specs
Okay well i finally build my system:
MSI Neo2 Platium Nforce 3 Ultra
3200 AMD 90 nm 939 socket
1.0 gig of 3200 corsair ddr
Audigy 2 plantium

Okay I installed world of warcraft. Everytime I try to play it the game freezes up right in the first screen. You have to reset. When I try to restart, the computer starts up and then keeps resetting till eventually windows works. It then says it has a driver issue. I dont understand what the problem is.

What power supply (brand/model) are you using? What video card? Is windows updated?

It sounds like you have an unstable power supply. So, when you play WoW, your video card eats more power. Also, do you OC your ram and cpu? try set them to default first.

I have a 500 watt power supply that game with my case. I really dont think it is the power supply. How would it be the power supply?

What brand of PSU? If it's a generic, I wouldn't be surprised if it can only push ~300W before conking out. A decent PSU is always a better bet.

Everything is updated. I am using a 9800 xt.

That page still doesn't say what the PSU is. Can you post the make/model, as well as the voltage specifications from the side sticker?

This is the power supply

ATX 500W Aluminum Power Supply w/See-Through Clear Acrylic Cover (Fire Resistant Material) & 2 x 8cm UV Blue Fan w/Blue Led Lights.

Okay I figured it out, It was one of my sticks of rams had plenty of errors on it. I took it out and everything is working perfectly. I returned it and hopefully they will send a new one that works fine. Thanks.
